Tour Itinerary:

Hoover Dam: Kick things off with a road trip from Sin City to the iconic Hoover Dam, a towering marvel that tames the mighty Colorado River.
Chloride, AZ: Defying desert elements since the 1860s. Once thriving with silver and minerals, it refused to become a ghost town. Dive into antique shops, chat with locals, and savor lunch. Admire quirky artistic sculptures in this lively artist's haven.
Cruisin' Route 66 to Oatman: Rev those engines and hit legendary Route 66, reaching Oatman, Arizona. Present population: 150 people and "Oatie the Ghost," believed to be Irish miner William Ray Flour's spirit. Enjoy Black Mountains views, snapshots of tumbleweeds, and wild burros strolling. Embrace your inner cowboy or bandit, posing next to an authentic Route 66 sign and starring in your own Western shootout!
Saloon Stop and Desert Drive: After the adventure, relax with a drink in the local saloon. Then, hit the road through the Mojave Desert, reaching El Dorado Canyon, a 19th-century mining town famous for movies and photoshoots. As you journey back to Sin City, savor the vastness of the American desert landscape.
